A big myth in the knife world is that out there somewhere is a knife that seriously cuts but cannot rust. Knives claiming these super powers are usually made with steels that are unable to hold a cutting edge for any measurable amount of time. Finally a steel foundry in Japan called Myodo Foundry makes this myth a reality with the introduction of a new steel called H1. H1 steel is a PH steel, meaning it is a precipitation-hardened steel. "Huh" you ask? Utilizing .1% nitrogen instead of carbon to harden the steel, it reaches a Rockwell hardness of 57-58RC. Spyderco® uses H1 on its new C91 Pacific Salt model.

For years multi-tool users chose from two distinct options when it came to a "one-hand-operable" multi-tool: one-hand-opening pliers OR one-hand-opening blades. Today, Leatherman® has taken these two well-loved ideas and fused them into the first ever, 100% one-hand-operable multi-tool, the Leatherman® OHT.

Aegis, which in Greek means shield or protection, is also the code name for the world's premier integrated air defense system and the sea-based element of the United States Ballistic Missle Defense System.

The SEALs are elite among specialized military groups in the world today. Only a select few endure, earning the right to wear the SEAL trident on their uniform. The knife chosen by the Navy for the SEALs must be no less worthy. This is a smaller, modified version of the original SEAL knife.
